About 4ADA

4ADA was started to leverage the 30 years’ experience of Ann-Christin Andersen, an experienced executive and board member – and tap into her extensive leadership network in business, government and academia.

4ADA has developed partnerships with a few key individuals and organizations to ensure that all relevant assignments can be delivered with quality and responsiveness todays executives expect and deserve.

Ann-Christin Andersen is a rarity in the executive ranks in that she can navigate seamlessly between two very different worlds. While she is extremely comfortable in the traditional world of managing large-scale business operations, she is equally adept at navigating the emerging world of digital disruption and transformation.
